The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) is a government entity responsible for distributing social grants to more than 16 million South Africans. Today, the entity introduced new cards that will be used by all social grant beneficiaries.
The new SASSA Card is expected to go into full roll-out at the end of April and will progressively be rolled out across the country.
